A SHOET descriptio:n^ of the coastal 
PLAiK sectio:n^ of :n^obth Carolina. 



The Coastal Plain includes those counties west of the Tidewater 
Section, and extends across the State parallel with the coast, at an 
average distance of about one hundred miles inland. It rises very 
gradually from an elevation of about fifty feet above sea level to about 
five hundred feet. The surface is sufiiciently rolling for perfect drain- 
age. The soil is variable, the principal type being light loam, with 
clay subsoil. There are also to be found black sand and clay soils. 
These lands are entirely free from stones, are easy of cultivation and 
respond liberally to intelligent tillage. The chief market crops are 
cotton, corn, tobacco, peanuts, cowpeas, sweet and Irish potatoes, sor- 
ghum, oats, wheat, upland rice, etc. Truck and fruit gi-owing for 
Northern markets is quite an industry. Here, too, are the largest 
growers of tuberose bulbs in the world. The melons are especially 
fine and are shipped North by the hundreds of car loads. 

This section is netted by the Atlantic Coast Line, Seaboard Air 
Line and Norfolk and Southern railroads, which furnish quick trans- 
portation for perishable products. 

The thermometer reaches the freezing point but few days during 
the winter; hence out-of-door work may be done during the entire 
year. 

There are a number of manufactories, principally cotton and wood- 
working plants. The predominating forest trees are pines, and among 
these are the noted health resorts of Pinehurst and Southern Pines. 

General farming, trucking, dairying, stock and poultry raising can 
be made profitable. 

The cowpea, the clover of the South, thrives everywhere. 
♦ Following will be found a list of farms offered for sale. For fur- 
ther information in regard to them, please write the owners, whose
